Purple and Gold Swirls

Hello, Fireflies!

As of right now, I don't know if the AIS group is going to continue with the Sunday Challenges, and if so, what they're going to look like going forward.  In the meantime, I'm still stamping, and I'll keep trying to post my latest attempts here on Sundays.

Colorless Stained Glass

Hello, Fireflies!

Today's Stamping Sunday is a stamp that reminds me of stained glass, but over a colorless backdrop.

Purple, Sparkly and Swirled

Hello, Fireflies!

Still no official theme for today's Sunday Stamping challenge.  So, I'm doing my own thing.

Bold Abstract Stamp

Hello, Fireflies!

I don't know what's going on with the AIS group these days - seems there are fewer official Sunday Stamping challenges going on.  I still love having Sunday Stamping, though, so for now I'll just keep sharing with you what I've done on my own.  This week, I've gone simple and bold with a black-on-nude bold pattern.

Fields of Sparkly Flowers

Hello, Fireflies!

There's no official challenge for today's Sunday Stamping, so I just picked one that I did recently that I liked!  Can't go wrong with glitter and flowers, in my book.

Florida Weather

Hello, Fireflies!

Today's AIS challenge is, "Whatever The Weather" and if that's not appropriate for our Florida weather, I don't know what is!

Egg-cellent!

Hello, Fireflies!

Happy Easter, to those who celebrate!  Happy 'Reminder Day To Pick Up Those Reeses' Peanut Butter Eggs" to those who don't! I sure do miss them when they're gone...

Today's challenge is 'Egg-cellent Eggs' so I was inspired by those long-gone days of decorating eggs for the hunt.

Alien Flowers

Hello, Fireflies!

There doesn't seem to be a particular theme for this week's AIS challenge, so I went dealer's choice and picked one from the vault that...well, I'm not sure what it is, really.

Sunday Stamping - Starry Night

Hello, Fireflies!

Today's challenge is, "Inspired by the night sky."  Seeing how I just scored a bottle of the new Starry, Starry Night on clearance, I thought I'd use it as the base of this nailart!

Sunday Stamping: Pastel Purple

Hello, Fireflies!

Today's Sunday Stamping challenge is Perfect Pastels.  I chose a pretty pastel purple and accented with a little glitter for this cute, Spring-y nailart.

Can't Wait For (Stamping) Spring!

Hello, Fireflies!

Today's Sunday Stamping challenge is, "I can't wait for Spring!"  For me, Spring immediately brings up thoughts of flowers and showers.  So, I created a colorful field of flowers for my nailart today.

I wanted to play with my OPI Color Paints, and I knew they'd look better over a silver polish, but I didn't buy the one that came with the set.  Well, when I tried ordering Cosmic With A Twist, Macy's sent me OPI By The Light Of The Moon, instead.  It's a silver foil with silver glitters, so that works for me.  It got completely covered up by the paints anyway - you can't even tell there's glitter under there. 

I dabbed on the different Color Paints (Primarily Yellow, Chromatic Orange, Magenta Muse, Indigo Motif, and Purple Perspective), and then stamped with UC 7-02 and Finger Paints Paper Mache.

Does it look like a colorful field of wildflowers?  Try squinting and tilting your head a little.  Now?  I knew you could see it, too.

Are you thinking Spring yet?

So Mod Stamping

Hello, Fireflies!

Today's Sunday Stamping challenge is to stamp over a white base.  I found that I couldn't resist doing a Mod Black & White design!

Sweet Candy Valentines #14DaysofValentines

Hello, Fireflies!

Today's nailart is so sweet, it'll give you a toothache! 

Hearts and Lace #14DaysofValentines

Hello, Fireflies!

Is it still Sunday Stamping, if I post on a Monday?  I really like this stamping nailart, and hope you do, too!

Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend

Hello, Fireflies!

Ready for some Sunday Stamping?  Today, I incorporate some bling into my nailart, because today's theme is, "Bling it up!"

Enchanted ZigZags

Hello, Fireflies!

This Sunday's AIS challenge is zig-zags or chevrons.  I decided to pull this cute pattern from the vault.  Lots of people are dealing with cold temperatures and maybe even snow, but the colors here are promises of Spring!

Golden and Delicious

Hello, Fireflies!

Happy Stamping Sunday! Today's theme is, "Feeling Fruity" and I was certainly feeling that when I created this nailart!

Checker-Stamp Board

Hello, Fireflies!

While the Admin of the AIS group gets over a nasty holiday sickness, it's open season for Stamping Sundays!  I decided to go back in the vault and pick a stamping nailart that I love, but never got to show you on the blog.

Sparkly Stamped Spirals

Hello, Fireflies!

There's no designated theme this week for the AIS stamping group, so I thought I'd bring you a spiral-y pattern I stamped with two different sparkly color schemes.

Snowflake Snowstorm in a Pond

Hello, Fireflies!

This Stamping Sunday, I'm cheating a little.  At the time I'm writing this, I don't actually know what the challenge will be.  But, as you're reading this, I've just returned home from visiting family, and I'm probably sleeping it off.... but, I have to stamp today, so I created my own challenge - the snowflake pond!
